We have it from good authority that
eX-Postmaster Deats, was ready to make
and did make full settlement with Inspec-
tor Darby at the time of his resignation
from the postoffice on the 18th of August
last. AT that time Deats had in his Dos
session a check for 100000, an amount
which more than covered the delinquency
claimed by the Press of Philadelphia some
weeks ago; as we understand the case the
inspector who made the examination of
Deats' accounts was perfectly satisfied but
in turning in an account of the condition
of the postoifice at Philadelphia miscon-
strued the word note for check, which
caused the charge of embezzlement TO be
made against Mr.. Deats This occurred on
the 2Oth ultimo; when Deats was notified
of the charge he Immediately went to Eas-
ton, and appearing before United States
Commissioner Kirkpatrick, demanded a
hearing, which he received-a final hearing
is to be had at Philadelphia sometime soon
-Deats being held in $1,000 bail for his ap-
pearance. The above are the facts so far
as we have been able to CLEAN them.
